What is this thing we've built that nobody owns? I believe people grow /kinder/. Be productive between cigarettes. Repetition is /not/ the opposite of Novelty. If you wish to harvest a healthy crop of genius, spent two years encouraging the mediocre. i am the Center of my own Universe - it could not be otherwise - and so too must it be that You are the Center of Yours. That does not mean you cannot be, for a time, the Captain of my experiences, nor that i, with your consent, might not /serve/ as the Captain of Yours. "Despair Not!" she cried, "There is /reason/ for Hope!" Indeed! Imagine! What if it /isn't/ already too late? "Follow me," she continued, "that we might Collaborate - and by so doing, avoid folly." We ain't stand t'hear, round 'ere, the "I ain't et yet" blues; so part your lips, my dear, closed mouths won't get fed. If we are fated to kill our gods, shall we not begin by sacrificing Artemis, herself, upon that obscene altar? Nor ought'n't we next - slay Mars? Why shun we Venus? Why persistently defame Set, libel Muhammad, and slander Zoroaster? She is the Lightning and the Thunder She is the Crackling of a fire She is the Rumbling of an earthquake and i'm a tumbling spire If you are not bringing yourself to tears as you write, what hope have you of taking your audience there? How do you expect to moisten their eyes while yours are dry? Learn to listen to your ducts. Live, well up, /then/ write. Stain your pages with more than just Ink.

I want again to feel your teeth against mine our toes entangled, our tongues entwined wrapped 'round each other like oak and vine
